I feel that I have need for a threaded 4/40 clevis.

Most everything that I have seen available (locally) is nothing but a solder unit.

Q) If I add an acid/flux solder to the core of my non threaded clevis, can I drill out the proper amount then "tap" the threads into it?

or

Will I need to use a SILVER SOLDER or again, must I BRAZE with something like copper?

I know that I can do this, but, will the new threads HOLD UP?

If you can buy the part, buy it.. No use futsing with making your own!
Du-Bro have one, a 4-40 clevis.

The solder, despite 'silver', would be soft..

Great Hobbies can do you... Kinda local too (or the day's drive to Edmonton!! )

Sullivan also has 4-40 threaded clevises.

YEP! Sure is. Under $2 and $9.99 to send it to me

Tower parts express is $3.99 S&H for that item. What is your time worth?

Marshall check with Cellar Dwellar or go on line to www.greathobbies.com.

Hi Jim

Every time I go up there, they are always "out-of-stock" on that item

MIke:

What mt time is worth -- isn't the issue. MAINLY, I use thios RC stuff as a HOBBY, not a business. If I need something and I can't find it, I
ll try to make it.

at the risk of being repetetive: I believe my question was " would the silver solder hold or would I have to go to brazing?

Thanks,

marwen1
